we heard governor christie just a little while ago saying that special equipment is being brought in here, some high-wheeled vehicles and there will also be temporary shelters including one at teterboro airport where they'll be giving residents dry clothes and blankets. these areas were not evacuated because no one expected this to ever happen and nothing of this magnitude so nobody was told to leave and we've been speaking with a lot of people here who have never, ever seen anything like it in all their years that they've lived in moonachie, and i can tell you in the last few minutes we've seen drivers coming up here and asking us what is going on and they're not able to get in touch with loved ones because there is no power and phones here. we'll send it back to you in the studio. >> it adds insult to injury and we'll ask everyone to stay in place. thanks very much. >>> mitt romney is about to kick off a disaster relief event in ohio. he and paul ryan have scrapped official campaign stops in the wake of the storm. the governor asking people in iowa last night to help and remember t
